Hi there, so most my martial arts experience comes from boxing and Muay Thai and MMA.
But for the past few years, iv'e taken up Shotokan Karate, which I absolutely love! I find it adds a lot my game, and I enjoy the traditional structure over say a boxing or MMA gym.
But from my understanding, i'm doing it "backwards'. A lot of guys start traditional then go on to do full contact styles.
I know there is no right or wrong way to do it, but I was wondering who else's done this, and what styles they switched to and from.
